“Selena is the best! Absolutely amazing. My dog is afraid of everyone. He never even barked at her! She sent me pictures throughout the day. My dog was having a great time. I can not say enough about how great she made my dogs time with her and was wonderful to work with. Next time I need a dog sitter, she will be my first and only choice!!”
“Autumn was great! I came home and the house looked like nobody had even been there. The dogs were relaxed and happy. Autumn was communicative and honest. Will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Pam was amazing staying in our home with our Cece (Cavalier King Charles) overnight this weekend. We rarely leave Cece as she goes everywhere with us. Pam came for a meet and greet the week prior to our date, showed up a little early and that gave us time to go over anything either of us needed to, texted us pictures of Cece, and left the house tidy and locked up. Cece clearly loved Pam upon meeting her and was very excited when she returned the following week. Pam is a confident, professional, warm person and we will hopefully be able to have her back the next time we need Cece taken care of.”
“Heidi was the most caring and considerate sitter. She was very professional and confident . We had a meet and greet and she was very efficient. She took notes. Heidi inquired about feeding and snack times so as to maintain the dogs normal schedules. About a week before the actual sitting date, we communicated again to review everything so that we all were on the same page and of course Heidi pulled out all the notes she had written earlier and was extremely well prepared. My pups are a bit crazy and on first introduction she was able to use her skills to immediately calm them. She sent photos of the dog daily. She took them on walks and runs. She also brought along her pup gypsy. All three pups had a wonderful time. I would not hesitate in booking Heidi for future services. I completely trust her with my precious pups. Thank you again Heidi.”
“Kylie and Dylan stayed with our 2 dogs for two weeks and we were very happy with the care they provided. When we returned, our pups were happy and the house was in great shape.”
About: I have had pets all my life and love all kinds of animals. I have a small zoo at our house and I love caring and giving the animals all the attention they need. Have alot of love to go around. I drive uber so will always be available anytime i am needed or able to come to your house at anytime in the day. This is something I love to do. I have a fenced in backyard where the animals can freely go to the bathroom. They will be cared for.and kept safe as I keep.all.my own animals safe.
About: I've cared for pets of all kinds since l was 10. My experience includes training puppies, caring for senior dogs, administering medication, and providing personalized love and attention. My open availability makes it easy to accommodate your needs. I provide boarding, day walk-ins, and visit-ins to ensure your pet gets the care they deserve. I have a safe, welcoming environment for pets including pet lobby. I prioritize their comfort and safety and tailor my care to each pet's needs.
“We started using Marianna few months ago. We have a special situation in that we have 3 cocker spaniels, two of which are special needs and require medications throughout the day. The reason we don't board our dogs is because our oldest is blind. Marianna is extremely compassionate and completely understands the responsibilities that involve totally taking care of your pets. In the past we would cancel our trips or just not travel because we are "worry-warts" Now that we have found Marianna and our dogs have developed a trusting relationship with her, we are back to traveling. We have been through a couple of pet sitters in the past but I can say with certainty that Marianna is the best. She follows every direction to the T, sends tons of videos and photos, and keeps you in the loop of everything that goes on while you are away. I truly feel Marianna loves our dogs the way we love our dogs. She really does a great job not only pet sitting for your pets but looking after your home as well. Our home is always clean when we return and it seems that she is sad to leave the dogs. We actually live far away from Marianna but pay extra for her travels to ensure that we have her look after our dogs. Anyone that is looking for a pet sitter that is trustworthy, responsible, professional and extremely compassionate go with Marianna. PS Thanks for taking great care of us ...From: Wrigley, Rizzo & Addie.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Chittenango
MacKenzie is polite and responsive. She did a meet and greet, and a walk or two before staying for a long weekend with my two dogs and indoor cat in my home. She was responsive and available for all of my over explaining and requests for updates. I have never left my dogs alone with anyone besides family or friends and it was nice to enjoy a trip knowing they were safe at home. I have other events coming up and I’m thankful I found someone I’m comfortable with, and they liked! Wound recommend and will be hiring again soon.

The average cost of House Sitting in North Chittenango is $27 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $27 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Chittenango walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Chittenango maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Chittenango choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
